Lobster's Room of Funk w/ Vortex, Buddha's triplets, and Rx

Well pretty slow log I have goin huh?

Plants are starting to come back around and recover from my neglect. My garden definately isn't much to look at right now. After transplanting I realized "shit I don't have room for these in this little ass closet" so I switched shit up and have decided to go back to cropping out my whole flower room at once.

I dread the inevitable trim sessions but I have been wasting alot of light and could be pulling some more weight. Would be nice to have some extra meds/trim around for bubble and bho experiments.

A few of these were a couple weeks into flower when I switched shit around and I don't know If they'll re-veg or not they seem to be pretty set on flowering.

Have a good one everybody :tiphat:

Got my cloning done today and Things are looking great. Its nice vegging under HID, been awhile. Here is a pic of the room right before lights-on as I was getting ready to take the cuts.

They really seem to be finding teir legs in this mix, I have been water only since transplant and intend on seeing how long that can go. I have added a few ingredients to my mix including Oyster shell, DE, bentonite, alfalfa meal, forest duff.

Will probably give ACT a try never ventured that far but I figure it is the next logical step.

Thanks everybody

Took a quick shot of the cloner tonight.

To re-cap all 5 Vortex were female and 2 BT were female. 7/10 is pretty damn good in my book.

Took 2 clones of everything in my trusty ass homemade cloner. Usually get about 90% to root.

Garden got the flip yesterday! :woohoo:

The Vortex are pretty uniform one is slightly pale but seems healthy. Topped all once, one much later than others. Pretty damn bushy plants for sure.

The BTs are looking good but totally different at this point. One was topped pretty early and the other topped later. The one that was topped later doesn't have much bushing going on and has some dark leaves and slight tip curl. The other is smaller in stature but healthy overall.

Hope I didn't over-veg, they are blowing up.

Can't wait to try some of these new flavors :bongsmi:

Well one week in to bloom and things are looking good. Have definately filled up my space and my soil is still rocking the shit outta these bitches.

Plan on doing some larf patrol later in the week and filling the cloner again. Will be top-dressing while I have them out of their room.

Hope there is something tasty hiding in here :tiphat:

Glad to have ya xmobotx

Well 14 days in and things are still doing well. One of the BTs doesn't wanna root, going to try to take a few more cuts and see if I can keep it going. Have clones of everything else.

Getting ready to top-dress them tonight. Stretch hasn't been too bad, a couple phenos are a little slower on the stretch but I try to keep them boosted up to a fairly even canopy.

Feel free to let me know what ya think, advice always welcome :tiphat:

Well 3 weeks down and things are still looking healthy. After taking inventory earlier this week I realized I was wrong about not having one of the BTs cloned, I aparently never had a Vortex #1 root.

Hopefully it is not the holy-grail or I will have to try a re-veg.

Here is a shot at day 22

Full on cotton balls everywhere.

Here is a shot of BT #2 the frostiest of the ladies at this early stage

Finally I threw together an ACT bucket. Only had a 4w pump and 3/4" pvc on hand but it seems to be doing fine. Threw together a simple tea with about 3 gal water, 1 cup compost and teaspoon of molasses. Has been brewing for 24 hr and all seems well, will try it out later tonight

About to do some rearranging and extend the reflectix up a couple feet.

Well another week down. A couple plants are suddenly showing N def again. May have to give a feed with fish emulsion or PBP to get some more N in there.

Will definitely try all bigger pots next round. I don't think the 3gals are enough for me.

The ladies are stacking pretty well and stretch has stopped. Lots of early frost in there, will try to get some individual plant shots up soon.
